Default Engine swap question

How easy is going from a 4.7L to a 5.2L in a 2000 dakota sport. Is it a direct swap as far as wiring and everything? If I decide to go to a 360 what years of engine must I stay between for easiest swap. Or how would a 5.2L to a 5.9L swap be?

O.K. scratch questions above ,I've read all the swaps questions from previous posts and see that it's not worth the work or money. So now my next question is what should I look at for rebuilding the 5.2L for more power for towing and hauling. What improvements from stock are worth the money in doing?
